Do people still fight over toys now? The only thing I can think of that might have came close to the Power Ranger craziness would maybe be Tickle Me Elmo, but that thing probably a decade old.

Apparently the new thing is something called Zhu zhu pets. Buddy of mine tells me horror stories at target about 40 something year old women wait by the warehouse doors for these things til they just chuck them out. |

Totally was able to snag a Red Ranger and a Putty! No figures on the pegs, I found the putty on TOP of the pegs laid across some other figures, and the Red Ranger buried under some Ben 10 crap. I'm stoked to say the least. I also went ahead and grabbed a box set just to have Lord Zedd... don't really know what I'll do with those Rangers though... *shrugs* Here's to more hunting soon! Have been tampted to get that Zedd... not sure what to do with those rangers... |

So I was digging through some stuff and I found something you guys might be interested in.  It's from 1994. When you press a button on the side it plays part of the original theme. I want to say this came from JC Pennys. It originally came in a tin...I was always disappointed because I didn't like the Blue Ranger. I'm amazed the sound still works, but the watch battery needs to be replaced. Anyone know if it's worth anything? I couldn't find anything like it on ebay. |

I had a Marvel Legends Punisher with the facepaint swiped out of my hand in a Wal-mart over the summer...guy just nabbed it and ran while I was reaching for my wallet. |

Saw these at Walmart and almost picked up the Green Ranger (obviously), but ended up deciding not to. I dont have anywhere to put it as Im in between living places right now. Ill probably end up regretting it.

I don't think they look small when I look at them.

I love the size, and I especially love the articulation.
Completely blow the old MMPR toys out of the water. I wish I had these when I was a kid.

These power rangers are amazing...but is a little sad that they are small. If they had this detail and made them look different back in the 90's they would have been amazing!

**** dude, I'd say DO IT! I don't care if I have a matching tattoo with someone who is a fan of the same thing... in fact, I think that'd be pretty rad!  |

Oh yeah, next time I get some ink slung into me, it'll be my left arm, which is almost a quarter of a sleeve. I'm going to get a lot of filler work done, and that was when I planned on getting some Mario Bros. work done, so I figure I'll just go ahead and get the bolt at the same time.
I can't wait, THIS lightning bolt is so much better, and actually means at least a little something to me, compared to just a traditional, run of the mill one. It would be cool to have a little 'bro tattoo' with someone on WF too, lol.
--That said, I just opened the box set of Rangers, and I'm disappointed. The paint jobs are pretty bad and the Green Ranger's right foot is bent REALLY bad, BUT - all of the weapons are straight as hell right out the box, and Zedd looks good enough.
So when I get the other ones I need, I at least don't have to blow dry the weapons to straighten them out like I had to do with Goldar's sword.

I just gotta get the first 3 done before i get the bolt I was lucky, none of my rangers weapons were bend, even with the power cannon(idk if thats right) that came with the putty. Jason/rocky's sword wasn't bent on it, or the sword that came with Jason/rocky. I love these figures so much, i hope my partner got me the rest of them for xmas |

Listen, if you guys want any Power Rangers tattoo, get Baboo and Squat making out with a banner under it that reads "True love exists no matter what planet you're from".

Doom... don't you already have that?
Edit:
So I've been looking all over the net for info on the second wave, and found that in the revisions of wave 1, the second revision, and the second wave... there is apparently no individual Zedd, Rita, or White Ranger.
In fact, it looks like in one of the revisions, Trini is totally left out.
LAME.
I guess I'll have to shell out the big bucks for Trini on ebay, which I really don't want to pay over retail + shipping. I'm glad now, that I do have the Zedd, but I really want a White Ranger.
If anyone posting here goes out soon, and picks up a Yellow Ranger for me, I'd be happy as hell to paypal you the cost + shipping, that'd be beyond dope.
